If Casablanca makes your liver hurt you should watch the Thin Man series. Ole William Powell as Nick Charles would roll out of bed and have a martini. In fact I think he was within reach of a martini at all times. LOL

are they implying she has an std and gets around? After reading how strict censors were, that's pretty risqué.
Implying something and saying something outright is what separated the great old film from today. Double entendre and innuendo were ways around the Hays Code.
ETA...Though I don't think they were implying she had STDs. Just that she got around!

The alcohol consumption in Archer is a clear homage to that era of film, not necessarily The Thin Man, specifically, but just to the whole screwball and noir genres where everyone is drinking, all the time.
